  • Abstract
    The past few years have seen significant research activity in understanding and characterizing multimedia applications on general-purpose processors (GPPs). While many of the commonly thought of features turned out to be true, there were a few myths that have been unraveled. We present a few facts and myths that we came across while doing performance evaluation and benchmarking studies on multimedia applications from 1998-2002.
